Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following...
1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt.
2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.
3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.
In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice.
IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.
We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
I just finished watching the video from last Monday night and wish I could have been more involved with the salt discussion. My internet service was not up to par and we were being disconnected every five minutes or so.
I bought the 'salt' ingredients to make a LMNT type drink but really didn't like the taste. I bought the Himalayan Pink salts and another brand of sea salt. I got one type of the Grey salt. I even bought the No Salt for the potassium.
I used salt quite a bit in the beginning of carnivore and in time pretty much just when cooking. Maybe the only thing I use salt on now is eggs.
I took all the salt cannisters and dumped them into a plastic bowl, capped it and shook it all up. I now use a 'blend' which works OK for me.
I had read how people ease off salt on carnivore and I guess I have made it to that point as well.
